Systemic mastocytosis (aka systemic mast cell disease) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm of [[Mast Cells|mast cells]] and their precursors. Clinical symptoms are associated with the accumulation of mast cells in different tissues, including bone marrow, skin, the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, the liver and the spleen.
